April 6, 2012: 2 Muskrats today and put another half dozen sets out for rats just because I can.
No pictures really worth taking but, Will be putting a video out in a day or so on all of the rat catches since I started this spring.

April 8, 2012:Happy Easter folks. Today got only 4 rats. But here's a few pictures. ![](http://www.trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2012/04/full-14932-81866-easter1.jpg) ![](http://www.trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2012/04/full-14932-81867-easter2.jpg) Got 38 so far out of the swamp. I think alot of them must have froze out early in the winter, normally there are alot more rats moving around this time of year. Only able to run a dozen or so traps, then I run out of places to set. Having fun doing it though.

April 9, 2012:Only caught one rat yesterday as were getting a thin layer of ice on the swamp and they don't have to go in the water quite as much. I was dissapointed to find mink crap and tracks right next to a muskrat set. Shame I couldn't trap it this time of year... will do damage to my rats if he finds any. And took a beaver in the channel set I had made to stop any more "Stoploss Beaver". Fairly half decent sized male. ![](http://www.trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2012/04/full-14932-82039-beaver2catch.jpg) ![](http://www.trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2012/04/full-14932-82040-beaver2catchb.jpg) Notice the nice big leech on his lip, yum yum! Here is my YouTube video of that beaver: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvyQuFmzss8Have also had a nice share of wood ticks on me in the last week. I'd say probably about 10 just from walking around out there.
